Title: Compact slide actuation mold
Inventor: JOSEPH EALIAS C
IPC: B29C45/33
Filed: 2001-05-29
Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A molding apparatus has a pair of slide inserts which are laterally movable into and out of engagement with the other mold components. The lateral movement of the slide inserts is provided by a slide mechanism having a driving rack, a pair of drive pinions at either end of the driving rack, two pairs of driven racks and a plurality of slides connected to the driven racks. The driven racks of each pair are parallel and spaced from one another, engaging opposite sides of a pinion and thereby being driven in opposite directions by rotation of the pinion. The molding apparatus is more compact than conventional devices having slide inserts, eliminates the use of slide retainers, eliminates obstructions between the mold plates when the plates are separated, and can cycle faster than conventional devices.

Abstract: An inexpensive webbing retractor is obtained by making a pretensioner and a lock device small and reducing the number of parts. A plurality of protrusions 126 are formed on an inner peripheral portion of the bearing body 124, which pivotally supports a clutch portion 106. These protrusions 126 are brought into linear contact with an outer peripheral portion of the clutch portion 106, whereby the bearing body pivotally supports the clutch portion 106 indirectly via the protrusions 126. Since the protrusions 126 are brought into linear contact with the clutch portion, the contact area becomes quite small. Hence, the protrusions 126 are easily plastically deformed due to friction resistance with the clutch portion 106. Therefore, resistance that obstructs the rotation of the clutch portion 106 becomes small, and gas pressure can be efficiently supplied for the rotation of a take-up shaft 20. As a result, members such as a gas generator 158 and the like which structure the pretensioner 14 can be made small, enabling reduction of cost.

Filed: 2002-01-29
Granted: 2013-01-08
Abstract: The applicants have recognized an alternate method of performing modular reduction that admits precomputation. The precomputation is enabled by approximating the inverse of the truncator T, which does not depend on the scalar. The applicants have also recognized that the representation of a scalar in a ~- adic representation may be optimized for each scalar that is needed. The applicants have further recognized that a standard rounding algorithm may be used to perform reduction modulo the truncator. In general terms, there is provided a method of reducing a scalar modulo a truncator, by pre-computing an inverse of the truncator. Each scalar multiplication then utilizes the pre- computed inverse to enable computation of the scalar multiplication without requiring a division by the truncator for each scalar multiplication.

Abstract: The invention relates to compositions, systems, and methods for simultaneously detecting the presence and quantity of one or more different compounds in a sample using aptamer beacons. Aptamer beacons are oligonucleotides that have a binding region that can bind to a non-nucleotide target molecule, such as a protein, a steroid, or an inorganic molecule. New aptamer beacons having binding regions configured to bind to different target molecules can be used in solution-based and solid, array-based systems. The aptamer beacons can be attached to solid supports, e.g., at different predetermined points in two- dimensional arrays. The invention includes devices, methods, and computer software for carrying out the methods.

Granted: 2006-07-04
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de contrôle décelant la présence d'un obstacle dans une ouverture (20) ou à proximité de celle-ci. On applique des matériaux à une ou plusieurs surfaces réfléchissantes adjacentes à l'ouverture, ce qui permet d'améliorer le rapport signal/bruit dans le système sans exiger un réglage du système par rapport à l'environnement particulier. Le choix des matériaux spécifiques dépend du type de rayonnement utilisé pour le contrôle de l'ouverture et du mode de détection des obstacles, soit en augmentation du rayonnement réfléchi soit en diminution du rayonnement réfléchi. Le système est équipé d'une diode électroluminescente d'étalonnage qui assure des performances prévisibles sur une gamme de températures. En outre, le système est capable de s'adapter aux variations du rayonnement réfléchi en arrière-plan, soit de manière automatique par observation des tendances relatives aux performances du système soit par commande externe. Dans ce dernier cas, on utilise un élément supplémentaire pour communiquer directement ou indirectement avec le système.

Title: Device for damping vibrations of an elevator car
Inventor: HUSMANN JOSEF
IPC: B66B1/28
Filed: 2003-03-05
Granted: 2010-11-09
Abstract: In the case of this elevator car (5), active vibration damping cannot dampen the structural resonance of the frame with the car body (5). This only becomes possible when a sufficiently good measurement of the state of deformation is available. Under elastic deformation, the safety plank (1) and the crosshead (2) move parallel and relative to each other, two acceleration sensors (9a) and (9b) aligned vertically (in the z direction) capturing the movement. From the difference between the sensor signals, the y rotation of the safety plank (1) and the crosshead (2) is determined. Together with the signals of the acceleration sensors (ac1) or (ac3), and (ac5) or (ac7), the shear movement of the frame can be determined.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improved methods for refining vegetable oils and byproducts thereof. This invention also relates to an improved process for deodorizing lecithin. The invention additionally relates to deodorized lecithin and deodorized vegetable oil obtained by improved processes of the invention. In an organic acid refining process, vegetable oil is combined with a dilute aqueous organic acid solution and subjected to high shear to finely disperse the acid solution in the oil. The resulting acid-and- oil mixture is mixed at low shear for a time sufficient to sequester contaminants into a hydrated impurities phase, producing a purified vegetable oil phase. In a lecithin deodorizing process, a phosphatide concentrate is contacted with steam in a dryer operating at a pressure below 50 mm Hg and at a temperature of less than about 150° F to form lecithin containing no more than about 0.5 percent by weight water. In a vegetable oil deodorizing process, vegetable oil is passed through a deodorizer having at least two trays and operating at a pressure of less than about 10 mm Hg. A first tray of the deodorizer operates at a temperature of about 510° F and a second tray of deodorizer operates at a temperature of about 450° F.
